November 27th 2011 is the worst and the best day of my life. It was the day I became a Mommy but also the day I had to say goodbye to my first born.
So this post is dedicated to the most amazing 1 lb 3 oz baby boy that a Mommy could have. The poem below is one that is very dear to my heart.
"You never said you're leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knew why.
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place,
That nobody could ever fill.
It broke my heart to lose you
But you didn't go alone
For a part of me went with you,
The day God took you home."

I love you Landon. Look for our balloons and lanterns we are sending up to you tonight. I promise to write a special message to you on one. I could write on for hours telling the world how much I love you and how special you are to me. But you already know how special and perfect that Daddy and I think you are. I am so thankful for the time that you were with us. You taught me just how special being a Mommy truly is. I promise I will never take that for granted.
I love you my itty bitty.
xoxo,
Mommy
